All those teams would have to screw up on all 4 of there cars. LMP1 can look pretty daunting. All credit and thanks to the current privateers and some of the past that have stuck with the sport.
I think you'll find that there won't be any privateer LMP1's for 2014, unless they are somehow privately modified LMP2's, or home builts. With only the WEC running LMP1 now, there is no market for LMP1 privateer cars, so it seems probable they won't get built. Either the manufacturers will have to sell cars, or they'll be the only ones racing.
